- City of Podolsk
Podolsk has a very deep and interesting history of its appearance.
As in any other city, in Podolsk there are many different legends about the appearance of the city’s name. The legend of this city tells us that Catherine II was passing through the village, but suddenly she wet the bottom edge of her dress. It's a pity, of course, that this is not true. Some people seem to have a very unique way of thinking. Because Catherine II somehow could not have ended up in these places. There is only a small percentage that she was in this city, and at that time in the village. Podolsk also played its own unique role during the Great Patriotic War. The climate of this city will be familiar to almost every citizen. Podolsk has a temperate continental climate. This means that the winters here are not harsh, like, for example, in Krasnoyarsk, they are softer and more forgiving here. It's not that cold here, mostly warm. Even during winter, the snow will always be a little melted, because the climate here is really very warm. But the most interesting thing is that there is more precipitation in summer than in winter. This means that summer here is not very pleasant. Cloudiness in the summer is extremely high, as well as fog every day, this is not news at all for this city.
The ecology in this city is also not an ideal environment for the average resident. Since there are many factories in Podolsk, and also a highway through which an enormous number of cars pass. Basically, the air is very heavily polluted in the eastern and northeastern parts of this city.
The population of Podolsk, according to data for the year two thousand and nineteen, about three hundred thousand residents live in the city. The city began to develop very quickly and rapidly, mainly after war times. There was a lot of activity in the city, the number of residents began to grow enormously quickly. The city grew very quickly, from two thousand people, literally in half a month it grew to fifteen thousand people.
This city has a lot of districts, about twelve. There is no point in talking about each one, but I will talk about them very briefly. The high-rise area has more comfortable living conditions for residents. The Zalineiny district is very large in scale. Zelenovsky district can be called the center of the city. Ivanovo district, better known as the village. The Krasnaya Gorka district is located along the highways of the city of Podolsk. The Grasshoppers district is calmer than other districts. Kutuzovsky district is the safest. Interhighway, more modern area. Central business district. Fetishchevo district, developing. Parkovy, as the name suggests, is endowed with parks and public gardens. Novo-Syrovsky district is at the stage of development.

Presentation for the class hour “My city Podolsk” material on the topic
Slide 1
My city is Podolsk.
Slide 2
City `s history. The village of Podol (Podol-Pakhra) has been known since 1627-28 as the patrimony of the Moscow Danilov Monastery. The name is formed by the term podol (plain, floodplain, terrace above the floodplain), which reflected the location of the village. The city of Podolsk grew out of the village of Podol, known since the 17th century as a small settlement on the banks of the Pakhra River. According to surviving sources, it is known that about 270 people lived in the settlement and there were about 30 households in the settlement. Mention is made of the small wooden Church of the Resurrection of Christ, which later became white-stone. Residents of Podol were engaged in gardening, arable farming, and transportation, which was considered prestigious. Trade developed in Podol, they traded in flaxseed oil and canvas, there were inns and taverns.
Slide 3
In October 1781, Catherine the Second issued a decree in which it was ordered to rename the village Podolsk and open the Podolsk district. Among the local residents there is a witty legend, passed on to this day, that while passing through the village, Queen Catherine soaked the hem of her dress and that’s where the name Podol came from. Podolsk is surrounded by picturesque plains and vast valleys, perhaps this gave rise to the beautiful and poetic name Podol and Podolsk.
Slide 4
In the 19th century, the main occupation of the residents was trade, transportation and extraction of white stone and rubble. Beautiful houses were built from Podolsk white stone in the Moscow region and Moscow. White Podolsk stone was called local Podolsk marble. The famous Church of the Sign was built from this marble in Dubrovitsy. The economic development of Podolsk in the 19th century accelerated the construction of the Brest-Litovsk (Warsaw) road in 1844-47, and the railway in 1866. In 1900, the American JSC Singer Company began construction of a plant in Podolsk for the assembly of sewing machines and the production of parts for them. The first cars were produced in 1903.
Slide 5
Podolsk is a participant in military events. In September 1812, the city was occupied for a short time by French troops, who caused significant damage to it. In memory of these events, the Trinity Cathedral was erected in the city (now located in the city center, opposite the Karl Marx Palace of Culture).
Slide 6
The outbreak of the Civil War forced the Soviet government to resume military production. Since many military factories in Russia were occupied by the White Guards, it was decided to build a new cartridge factory in Podolsk. He occupied part of the projectile. Since the fall of 1919, it began to produce cartridges and remake foreign cartridges. On May 2, 1919, the Podolsk Steam Locomotive Repair Plant (the future Ordzhonikidze Plant) was opened in Podolsk, which was deployed on the territory of a cable and copper rolling plant.
Slide 7
During the Great Patriotic War, Podolsk was a front-line city. Although the city was bombed little, several German air raids were carried out, which tried to hit two objects: the bridge over the Pakhra River and the bank building on Strelka (now Lenin Square). Significant assistance to the front was provided by Podolsk industrial enterprises, which during the Great Patriotic War transferred all capacities from the production of civilian products to production for the defense industry: they produced ammunition, repaired tanks and other military equipment. The Ordzhonikidze Machine-Building Plant produced armored hulls for T-40 tanks and Il-2 attack aircraft. By November 1941, the plant was completely evacuated from Podolsk. In its place, a numbered plant was opened for the production of anti-tank hedgehogs, shovels, armored locomotives, and in 1942, also evacuated from Taganrog, which continued boiler production in the city.. On January 1, 1942, to the soldiers of the 43rd Army by employees of the S. Ordzhonikidze Machine-Building Plant The famous armored train "Podolsky Rabochiy" was transferred. In 1939 - 1940, artillery and infantry schools were created in Podolsk, in which more than 3 thousand cadets studied. On October 5, 1941, Podolsk cadets were alerted and defended Maloyaroslavets for several days during fierce battles.
Slide 8
Culture of the city of Podolsk Temples and churches. Trinity Cathedral. Trinity Cathedral, built in 1819 - 1832 in honor of the victory in the Patriotic War of 1812 and is a five-domed cathedral in the Empire style with a three-nave refectory and a three-tier bell tower. Among the churches in the southern Moscow region, the Trinity Cathedral is the only one with a five-domed top. The architect of the cathedral is Osip Ivanovich Bove, famous for the reconstruction of Moscow after the fire of 1812. Trinity Cathedral was created as a compositional center of urban development, so a high hill above the Pakhra River was chosen for its construction. Trinity Cathedral has its own shrines: this is the Jerusalem Icon of the Mother of God, revered by Podolsk residents for delivering the city from cholera in 1866, two relics with particles of the relics of 140 saints, an icon of the new martyrs of Podolsk. During the years of Soviet power, Trinity Cathedral was the only functioning city cathedral in the Moscow region.
Slide 9
One of the oldest churches in Podolsk is the Church of the Resurrection of the Word (or simply the Resurrection Church) on Krasnaya Street, which is mentioned in the scribe books of 1627 - 1628, when the village of Podol, which was the patrimony of the Moscow Danilov Monastery, was located on the territory of the modern city. The first church was wooden, which caused a fire in 1722. In the middle of the 19th century, the church was repaired and an independent parish was restored. But with the establishment of Soviet power, church property was confiscated, and in March 1929 the Resurrection Church was closed. Subsequently, the church was significantly destroyed (including the destruction of the bell tower), and it was turned into a workshop for the production of tombstones. An industrial technical school was built in the adjacent cemetery, where those who died from the cholera epidemic of 1848 and closed in 1924 were buried. Subsequently, the church was used for other economic purposes. The first divine liturgy took place only in 1995. Between 1995 and 1999, the Church of the Resurrection was actually revived.
Slide 10
Church of the Sign In 1690-1704. The Znamenskaya Church, remarkable in its architecture, was built. The temple builder, on the recommendation of Peter I, invited an Italian architect. His name is still not known. The church was built by foreign craftsmen and Russian serfs. The building was built from limestone quarried nearby, on the banks of the Pakhra. In 1697, when the church was ready, the location for the church was chosen surprisingly well - on a hill, where the Desna merges with the Pakhra. The temple was consecrated by Metropolitan Stefan (Yavorsky) on February 1704 in the presence of Peter I, Tsarevich Alexei and many secular and clergy. The king brought a rich gift: expensive church utensils. In 1848-1850 carried out the restoration of the Church of the Sign with funds allocated from the treasury by order of Emperor Nicholas I. In the 1930s. The Church of the Sign was closed. In 1932, the bell tower was blown up. The temple fell into disrepair. In 1947, the temple building housed the warehouses of the All-Union Scientific Research Institute of Animal Husbandry. The first Liturgy in the last 60 years was celebrated on October 14, 1990. It was led by Bishop Gregory of Mozhaisk. Complex restoration work is being carried out in the temple. The church is included in the UNESCO World Heritage List.
Slide 11
Estates. One of the famous attractions of the city is the former Ivanovskoye estate, which currently houses the Museum of Local Lore and the Museum of Professional Education of Russia. For the first time, Ivanovo as a patrimonial property was mentioned in the scribe books of 1627. At the end of the 17th century, the estate belonged to the okolnik Ivan Ivanovich Golovin and his heirs, in the second half of the 18th century - to Field Marshal Mikhail Fedotovich Kamensky. At the end of the 18th century, Ivanovskoye came into the possession of the senator, cousin of Lev Nikolaevich Tolstoy, Count Fyodor Andreevich Tolstoy. It was by his order that the artistic complex of the estate was created. After the death of Fyodor Tolstoy, the estate passed to the Count, Governor-General of Finland (1823), Moscow (1848 - 1859) Arseniy Andreevich Zakrevsky, who carried out the reconstruction of Ivanovsky. Subsequently, Ivanovskoye was the property of Countess Agrafena Fedorovna Zakrevskaya, Countess Sofia Vasilievna Keller and the Bakhrushin family, who in 1916 donated the estate to the Moscow city government for the establishment of a medical and educational institution for orphans.
Slide 12
The Golitsyn estate in Dubrovitsy is located in the village of Dubrovitsy, Podolsky district. The history of this place is inextricably linked with such famous people as Prince I. A. Golitsyn, boyar I. V. Morozov, Peter the Great. The magnificent manor in Dubrovitsy was rebuilt a lot by its owners over several centuries and over time moved from the Baroque style to classicism.
